Help me save the world from Alien Invasion! Post here the name of your character along with preferred class, nickname/call sign, skills, nationality and appearance! I'll stuff them in my game and see whether they can blast some alien scum…or get blasted themselves.

Some characters have already made their place in my save files, but feel free to add things like appearance or call sign even if your character shows up here.

Classes:

Assault Front-line units specializing in defense, mobility and close-range damage, allowing them to close in on the enemy and flank more easily. They can be equipped with either assault rifles for mid-range combat or shotguns for close encounters. They excel at close quarters combat and urban combat.

Support Versatile jack-of-all-trades who focuses on squad defense, supporting fire, healing teammates and being able to carry more gear with them to missions. A highly mobile class. I usually upgrade my supports to act more like medics than fire support.

Heavy Specializing in lots of dakka and explosives. They use high firepower combined with explosives and have some support capabilities. However, high damage capabilities and explosives comes at the cost of a much lower aim stat compared to other classes.

Sniper Soldiers who specialize in very high damage at very long distances. The most fragile out of all of the classes and start out quite weak…but become incredibly powerful once they have a few promotions under their belt.

MEC Trooper Soldiers who sacrificed their limbs for a badass power suit of awesome. They work like tanks, being able to tank damage and dish out a LOT of it. However, just like tanks, they have to be carefully maintained and take a lot of resources to create, prepare, maintain and upgrade. Despite this, the firepower and sheer tactical advantage they bring to the battlefield is unmatched.

Sub-Classes

Psionic A late-game sub-class that involves mental domination of the battlefield. Any soldier has psychic potential, though those with higher wills are more likely to have "The Gift". Powers come in various flavors such as mind rape, inspire others, the fear of god, mind control and telekinetic force fields. I test all soldiers for the Gift, though you can specify if you DON'T want your character to be tested, or if you always want them to be psionic.

Gene Mods Genetically modify a soldier, fusing their DNA with the DNA of the alien invaders, providing incredible tactical advantages. I generally give gene mods to all my soldiers, but you can specify if you DON'T want that here, or request specific gene mods on your soldiers. More information, along with a list of specific gene mods, can be found here.
